The last place I worked, they switched over to synthetic oil and I was given a nearly full barrel of 80-90wt gear lube. It had sat in a wet corner with feed around it and rusted the bottom enough that it started to leak. I brought it home and turned it upside down so it wouldn't leak. I want to transfer it to another barrel so I can use it. I'm afraid the rust is bad enough if I turn it over it will bust out and loose oil and make a mell of a hess. Any ideas how to get it out? I thought about putting it in the loader bucket and raising it up, put a clean barrel and funnel under it and shooting a hole it it with a 22 short. If I drill a hole, I'll have shavings in the oil. If I try to knock a hole with a chisel, I'll have crap falling into the oil from the inside. Any ideas how to get the oil out and still be usable? Thanks, Chris
